  1. Match each statement about pyruvate metabolism in mitochondria with the correct term.

    This product of pyruvate oxidation directly supplies energy to the mitochondrial electron transport system.

      

    This product of pyruvate oxidation diffuses across the lipid bilayer of the  mitochondrial inner membrane.

    This product of pyruvate oxidation enters the citric acid cycle.

      

    This is co-transported into the mitochondrial matrix along with pyruvate.

    A.

    NADH

    B.

    AcetylCoA

    C.

    CO2

    D.

    H+

QUESTION 14

  1. You have a small plastic chamber with a semipermeable cellulose membrane running down the middle. This membrane contains pores that allow molecules with sizes under 10,000 daltons (Da) to pass freely. You fill one side of your chamber with water (18 Da) and the other side with an equal volume of solution containing bromophenol blue dye (670 Da) at a concentration of 4 mg/mL in water. After allowing your experimental chamber to stand overnight, you would expect to find ____________________.

    that all the water in the chamber had moved to the side you added dye to, which was hyperosmotic

    4 mg/mL bromophenol blue solution on both sides of the membrane due to diffusion of the molecules.

    that all the dye had moved to the opposite side of the membrane, which was hypoosmotic

    2 mg/mL bromophenol blue solution on both sides of the membrane due to diffusion of the molecules.

QUESTION 15

  1. Fermentation pathways ____________________.

    include an electron transport system in which molecular oxygen is not the final acceptor

    produce less ATP and more NADH than glycolysis

    cannot operate if molecular oxygen (O2) is present

    produce ATP only through glycolysis, and regenerate NAD+

three autosomal genes (Z, E and T) in seahorses. Each gene sorts independently and each gene has two alleles. The Z allele forms zebra stripes which are completely dominant over no stripes, z. The E allele codes for crossed eyes which is dominant over uncrossed eyes, e. Lastly, the T allele codes for jellyfish-like tentacles,which are dominant over (t) squid-like tentacles. You have two parents that are completely heterozygous for all traits. What is the probability they have offspring that have:

a.Zebra Stripes, uncrossed eyes, and squid-like tentacles? ________________

b.All dominant traits?_______________________________

c.Have the genotype ZZeeTt?_________________________

d.True breeding for zebra stripes, crossed eyes and squid-like tentacles?______________

e.All dominant alleles or all recessive alleles?________________

f.The first progeny is a male with zebra stripes and the second progeny is a male with no stripes?(assume sex probabilities in zebrafish is similar to humans)

Why is it preferable, if possible, to take a narrow spectrum antibiotic over a broad spectrum antibiotic?

Group of answer choices

narrow spectrum antibiotics have a limited range of effectiveness among different bacterial species but they each have several modes of action which make them more effective than broad spectrum antibiotics

narrow spectrum antibiotics are less likely to be overcome by antimicrobial resistance mechanisms compared to broad spectrum antibiotics

narrow spectrum antibiotics always have a high theraputic index compared to broad spectrum antibiotics

narrow spectrum antibiotics are less likely to destroy the normal gut microflora which can lead to development of super-infections after treatment

narrow spectrum antibiotics attack many more species of bacteria compared to broad spectrum antibiotics
